I was born and raised in Johnstown. My mother was in the 1936 flood. And other family members were in the 1977 flood. Johnstown has persevered. The memorial to honor those victims in any of those floods is heartbreaking.

Being born and raised in Pennsylvania. And proud of it, kinda. Here are a few things some forgotten. Stone ridge in palmerton. Coudersport ice mine... never been there. Somewhere around east stroudsburg is a forgotten landmark called "the glades" it used to have a historical marker. It's an unusual forest full of small hills. Probably from glaciers.

Thanks for a PA travel channel! You should check out ringing rocks park in Bucks County. Take a hammer with you to wack the rocks in this glacial boulder field to hear them ring. Also try the Stony Vally Rail trail - a twenty mile long well kept path a half hour north of Harrisburg through some of the most unspoiled land in PA (big bolder fields and a great trout stream). The PA Grand Canyon is an easy pick as is the Ohiopyle rafting rapids near Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater house. Of course the very first oil well near Titusville PA has historical significance as does the Pittsburg funicular that carried steel works from their cliff-top homes to the riverside steel mills. And why not check out the famous horseshoe curve, or the birthplace of the USA at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The list is endless!

I last visited Archbald State Park in 1988 (I was underwhelmed) and I didn’t know the state had fixed it up, I might stop in some time and check it out. I drive past whenever I go down to Dixon City, and typically just ignore it, but you make it sound nicer than I remember it. As a local, I’ll say that only people coming from far away think Archbald is part of the Poconos. There seems to be a common misconception that everything west of Harrisburg and north of Philadelphia is “the Poconos” when, in fact, that’s a fairly small plateau around Mt. Pocono. Archbald is in the Endless Mountains. Anyway, I’ve subscribed, I’m curious to see where you visit next, and I like your presentation style.
@keystonecuriosity3 ай бұрын
@@jpe1 Thanks for the subscribe! Theres actually a lot of different regions in PA that get bunched in as Poconos simply for "branding" or advertising. Kinda annoys me but I get it. I will admit, I was also a little underwhelmed by the Pothole itself. Still think its neat enough as a place to get out and stretch your legs, but the trails on the grounds around it sold it for me, even though its not technically part of the State Park. Glad you liked the video!
